Project 1 Exercise 1: Your Own Workflow - 1

For this first exercise I have to devise and put into practice a workflow which suits me for a specific short assignment. It is recommended that this assignment is a portrait session with a limited time frame. I need to arrange models, a suitable location and equipment. consider the poses and angles of my model. A number of images should be taken which will then need to be edited in order to select one or two. The assignment must contain

Time limit

On the spot development and improvement of composition

A sequence of images, possibly 20 or more

A session of picture selection

Processing the final image

Planned Workflow -

[Choose a suitable location

[Choose suitable equipment according to what you personally own or can be made available

[Sharpen at last stage before printing or final use in Books or Web. For internet use colour profile SRGB.Adobe Photoshop CS4 has a useful "save for web" option. For personal printing use ProPhoto. If using printers establish which colour profiles they work with.
